The Hampton Roads Sports Media Hall of Fame has revealed its 2025 induction class. The eighth group of recipients will be honored during a May 3 ceremony at Langley Speedway in Hampton, with the rain date set for May 17.

Five media members were voted in by the selection committee.

In alphabetical order, they are:

* Jay Colley, the longtime radio voice and occasional video broadcaster for William & Mary football and basketball

* Brad Face, a former sports anchor for the area's ABC TV affiliate, WVEC

* Woube Gebre, a Norfolk State radio and TV broadcaster, podcast host and occasional ESPN+ announcer

* Earle Hellen, a late golf writer and sports reporter for the Daily Press and Times-Herald

* Bill Leffler, a late sports writer and columnist for The Virginian-Pilot

Two honorary recipients also will be celebrated: Wade Harrington, a video production specialist, and Langley Speedway owner Bill Mullis, who has sparked the track to big crowds since taking over.

"This is an excellent class of recipients and we look forward to a wonderful event later this year," said Newport News' Greg Bicouvaris, a co-founder of the hall of fame along with Chuck Hall.
